Famous quotes containing the words perfect and/or tree:
“Good as is discourse, silence is better, and shames it. The length of the discourse indicates the distance of thought betwixt the speaker and the hearer. If they were at a perfect understanding in any part, no words would be necessary thereon. If at one in all parts, no words would be suffered.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Gray, dear friend, is all theory,
But green the golden tree of life.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
